Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is very good, atmospheric, full of great actors doing great acting, and deserves due attention. It probably won't be harmed by waiting for the small screen because it's mostly people being sly at each other in small dingy rooms, but would be by ad breaks and the like.
(Indeed, the only "whoa!" cinematic moment in the showing I attended was the trailer for David Fincher's The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo which looks like another of his great World Of Darkness movies.)
I was slightly thrown by the initial briefing scene, going "it's John Hurt, and Gary Oldman... and Colin Firth and Ciaran Hinds and Toby Jones and... someone I don't think I've ever seen before..." but that might be a red herring. Or might it?
